Keep reading a lot as "looking in a dictionary" millions of times. Use online (= not paper) dictionary for your convenience. It worked for me. Frequently-appearing words are retained in your memory. That' the way.

I'm learning Japanese, and i have the same problem. 1) Look up a subject of intrest, and translate it 2) get a white board and write down words (or a chalk board) 3) Ask family members or friends to have practice conversations with harder words. Of course if they don't know the language just tell them what words you want them to say. 4)Watch moveies 5)Listen to songs 6)Read online articles you find interesting 7) Read a book 8) Read manga that was translated to language you are learning ( The pictures help you understand things) 9) Talk with someone who speaks the language

Hi. You can learn English vocab free online.This website has themed units with pictures and sound, English games and free English lessons for beginners www.learnenglish.de/ In order to remember your English vocabulary you can follow 2 methods. First is the repetition-based method, where you learn English words by writing them several times or saying them repeatedly until you remember them all. If you patiently follow the process, you will see your vocabulary extended very well. Secondly, you also need have to have a notebook with your own note-taking rules. Each time you log onto Italki, note down any new words in the Questions and Answers section. The only problem is whether you want a rich vocabulary or not. Your plan should answer 4 questions. 1.How many words will you learn a week: 5, 10, 15 or more? 2. When will you learn them? Every other morning or anytime you feel like learning? 3. How often will you review what you have learnt: weekly, monthly or before a test ? 4. What areas of English will you focus on? Sports, music, games or sciences? The answers may vary a great deal from one person to another depending on memory, schedules and interest. You can gain a big vocabulary and improve your English by simply by determining what field of words to learn, making a plan of learning, choosing a learning method and regularly practising your plan and method. Daily vocab learning is better than weekly or monthly. Remember your vocab by drawing a small a picture next to it.For example, for the phrase "make up" draw a small coloured picture of a woman's face with lipstick, eye shadow and mascara. "Make up" also means to make friends again after an argument so you need to draw 2 people shaking hands underneath your first picture. Good luck.
